Experience of creating your own product
Index note 8 experiences; activity monitor build
– experience of wanting an idea
– experience of conceptualization
– experience of creating
– experience of making
– experience of productifying
– experience of marketing
– experience of selling
– experience of using
Experience of wanting an idea (The Void: Recognizing a need before a solution.)
Experience of conceptualization (The Blueprint: The thought process on how it works.)
Experience of creating (The Genesis: The moment the first version is made.)
Experience of making (The Labor: The effort of refining and finishing the product.)
Experience of productifying (The System: Streamlining for repeatability.)
Experience of marketing (The Narrative: Focusing on the audience’s perspective.)
Experience of selling (The Transaction: The risks involved in exchange.)
Experience of using (The Utility: The practical use and feedback.)
Example:
Wanting an idea of : Experience of using a product, which will monitor me, and will tell me how I spend my time.
Conceptualization: It can use various pressure and IMU sensors with battery and wireless placed at various locations, but will require user to charge them often, adding to burden. Another option could be to use cameras with VLM to describe scene person is doing. Local LLM8850 can run some VLA, at some rate as it has 24TOPs int8, on rpi5. The VLA model will look at scene every certain time, and will give detailed description for it, which would be converted to tags which are to be tracked: for e.g. on chair with laptop working, sleeping, eating, etc. Although, since to track only for 1 person, in software, it needs to know that the space will be utilized only by oneperson, otherwise there would need sensitivity to identity which might be absent from distant cam or available unboxed VLAs. So there might be need of custom local data improvement on model, which ofc. need to be automated to make its life practical as a working product, and to save effort, as life is too short for every other thing that I must and need to explore for my experience for which I’m trying to build this kind of thing in the first place. And, also because I might want to do something in my spare time now.
Creating:
.. yet todo , I have the materials:
LLM8850 from M5Stack, and rpi5 16GB ram, and vibecoder software to do web. So flowchart will be something like from text, attributes will be detected, which are appended to its signal, and that signal wil be shown in the dashboard which suggests activity of user to the user, and user can take action, or there could be automated feedback on user’s activity to maintain healthy or desired lifestyle to achieve the goals.
.. To add.
Material cost would be 150 LLM8850 +150 rpi5: 300 in material
other cost is software labor in creating (coder + electricity+ human food cost + cost of missing other opportunities while participating in this activity)
software is easy to create, so its already there, whats next, how to make it product
Productifyzation: it needs to be sold.. well no tutorials here, apparently money generation is not taught which works like science, because money is held and owned by people who make their own decisions on how to make a spending. So a single method does not work to get earnable income, so it kind of exists as a flaw in society which makes it imperfect on how the world should work..
